Customer Reviews

A great multi-purpose router that replaces my AirPort Express
Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/RMM4538NDLG3Y Before getting the CradlePoint router I was using the Apple AirPort Express as my travel router. However, the CTR500 is now the router of choice in my bag. It works great and has a slew of configuration options. CradlePoint does make a battery operated version, I just wish that this one was one. I also wish that the AC adapter were smaller. Otherwise, this thing rocks!

Best wifi router installation experience
I travel quite a bit for work and I got this router to share my Verizon EVDO RevA card between my laptop and UMA VoIP phone. It works great. In less than 10 minutes from opening the box I was up and running.

decent router, works with nokia 3555 and T-Mobile 3G
though the support site doesn't mention it works with T-Mobile 3G, it does
on advanced-mobem setting, there's a box where you can put AT command that you can specify which APN you use, then use these commands
AT
AT+CGDCONT=1,IP,"(YOUR APN)"
ATDT*99#
it also works with nokia 3555 and Bandrich 3G card for T-mobile (from stelerawireless.com), you have to have microUSB cable and need to use nokia mode with 3555
this is the best solution to tether data card with other wifi based device (tried LocPlayer on PSP with T-Mobile HSDPA), and works well
however, it has some speed hit when using this router, the speed drops around 30% when going through this router
some newer model express cards and SE phones don't work with this router
a side note: you can modify PSP external battery with compatible DC plug to make it 100% portable, the external battery can provide an hour of continuous streaming
